Massachusetts Personal Injury Lawyers

Crowe & Mulvey, LLP, recognizes that injured victims in Massachusetts have legal and personal needs that are very different from those of business and corporate clients. We seek to meet those needs by providing our clients with not only a high-quality personal injury attorney, but also with individual attention and emotional support to help them through the difficult time that accompanies a serious injury or death in the family.

At Crowe & Mulvey, LLP, the senior partners are personally involved in each case to make sure that each client gets the benefit of our many years of experience in representing injured victims. Our lawyers and nurses meet regularly to discuss the progress of each case and to plan strategies designed to maximize recovery for each client. Unlike large-volume personal injury firms, which adopt an impersonal, assembly-line attitude toward case preparation, our approach to each case is highly individualized and tailored to the specific facts of the case and the particular needs of the client.

While a personal injury lawyer and nurses are familiar and comfortable with the litigation process, we understand that it can be mystifying and intimidating to our clients. We want our clients to know that our personal injury attorneys and nurses are always just a phone call away, and that no question is too small or too insignificant to be answered.
